Product of a public architectural competition for preliminary designs, at the town of Chañaral, located at the Atacama Region, a desertic zone in the north of Chile, the request was to conceive an educational establishment for secondary high school youngsters, to be located in a whole block site, corresponding to downtown Chañaral. This courtyard or central space also allows an efficient control of the students, during break hours, thus ensuring an optimum coexistence between the student use of the space and adequate possibilities of assistance in case of emergencies.

The Project islocated in the northern part of the city, in the 50 year old neighborhood of Las Compañias, northwards the northern bank of the Elqui river. The inmediate sorroundings correspond to the “Low Las Compañias” sector, characterized by lowrise, very highly densified housing, with scarce infraestructure and green areas such as parks, squares or plazas. Nevertheless, these short commings haven´t limitated de development of a neighborhood with a distinctive seal, and an identity characterized by fruitful social life and encounters, and small businesses. In this context, the Jorge Alessandri Secondary School offers technical-profesional education, and has over gone more than 30 years of recognized prestige.
